  • Jamaica's Parishes and Civil Registration Districts
    Jamaican registration districts Jamaica’s parishes and civil registration districts [updated 2010 Aug 15] (adapted from a Wikimedia Commons image) Parishes were established as administrative districts at the English conquest of 1655. Though the boundaries have changed over the succeeding centuries, parishes remain Jamaica’s fundamental civil administrative unit. The three counties of Cornwall (green, on the map above), Middlesex (pink), and Surrey (yellow) have no administrative relevance. The present parishes were consolidated in 1866 with the re-division of eight now- extinct entities, none of which will have civil records. A good historical look at the parishes as they changed over time may be found on the privately compiled “Jamaican Parish Reference,” http://prestwidge.com/river/jamaicanparishes.html (cited 2010 Jul 1). Civil registration of vital records was mandated in 1878. For civil recording, parishes were subdivided into named registration districts. Districts record births, marriages (but not divorces), and deaths since the mandate. Actual recording might not have begun in a district until several years later after 1878. An important comment on Jamaican civil records may be found in the administrative history available on the Registrar General’s Department Website at http://apps.rgd.gov.jm/history/ (cited 2010 Jul 1). This list is split into halves: 1) a list of parishes with their districts organized alphabetically by code; and 2) an alphabetical index of district names as of the date below the title. As the Jamaican population grows and districts are added, the list of registration districts lengthens. The parish code lists are current to about 1995. Registration districts created after that date are followed by the parish name rather than their district code.

Revised lithostratigraphy of the Coastal Group of south-eastern St. Thomas, Jamaica 1 SHERENE A. JAMES-WILLIAMSON AND SIMON F. MITCHELL Department of Geography and Geology, The University of the West Indies, Mona, Kingston 7, Jamaica 1Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The lithostratigraphy of the Coastal Group (Neogene) in the south-eastern part of the parish of St. Thomas, Jamaica, is formally described based on detailed geological mapping. Four formations and two members are recognised: August Town Formation (including the Leith Hall Member [new member]); Layton Formation (reintroduced name) (including the Bowden Member); Old Pera Formation (changed rank) and Port Morant Formation (formerly introduced). Type sections for each new and upgraded formation are described. The paper presents the revised lithostratigraphy of the formations, clarifies some previous misconceptions, and places the formations into a formal nomenclature as set out by the International Stratigraphic Commission. Key words: Coastal Group, Jamaica, lithostratigraphy, Neogene, Quaternary. The sedimentary succession in the Coastal Group Barrett and Sawkins of St. Thomas-in-the-East, of Jamaica, was important in the establishment of along with Barrett’s description of the Portland the biostratigraphic zones of the Neogene based on successions, indicates that both geologists felt that planktic foraminifers and calcareous nannofossils the succession commenced with Eocene shales, (see summary in Bolli et al., 2007).
